Painting Tang

"……what?"

Yu Tang tried her best not to let herself bounce out like a frightened rabbit, did Mu Jingchen mean what he thought...?The reaction, is it the reaction he thought?

Should he take a look to make sure?

Yu Tang lowered her eyes in a panic, and glanced cautiously and quickly under Mu Jingchen's body, and then his ears became redder and hotter, like flower mud that had been washed and then baked in a steamer.

"Go out and wait for me, okay?"

Afraid of scaring him, Mu Jingchen set off layers of water splashes, and tapped Yu Tang's nose with his watery fingers, "I'll sit alone for a while."

"You... don't sit for a long time, the water will be cold."

Yu Tang nodded his head in a panic, turned his back in a panic and ran away like a rabbit. Seeing his clumsy appearance, Mu Jingchen couldn't help covering his face with his hands to avoid the smile on his lips. It seems too presumptuous.

It's true, it makes people harder.

"Ah yeah? Sister-in-law, why did you come out so soon?"

The little cook passing by the bathhouse was carrying the flour for making steamed buns tomorrow morning, and Yu Tang bumped into each other face to face.

"Mu Jingchen said he wants to wash himself."

Yu Tang quickly suppressed the panic in his eyes, and smiled awkwardly, "Is Big Brother Zhen Hui there?"

"The inner bastard was sent back to Yulin to handle errands. Isn't our camp recruiting new soldiers these days? He's going to sign the documents."

When the little cook mentioned Zhen Hui, his face was full of disgust, "What is my sister-in-law looking for? Just tell me what you need in the camp. You don't have to find Zhen Hui."

"It's nothing serious, I just thought that if Big Brother Zhen is here, he can help me remember the time, and don't let Mu Jingchen soak for too long and catch a cold."

"Don't worry, big brother is not a child anymore,"

The little cook smiled and said, "Besides, there is someone as careful as you, sister-in-law, to accompany you. You can't count on Zhen Hui for this kind of thing. He is with the elder brother, but the elder brother takes care of him more."

After hearing this, Yu Tang nodded, and then reached out to help unload a bag of flour from the little cook's shoulder, and hugged it.

"Are you going to the kitchen? Let me get you some."

"Hey - what an embarrassment!"

The little cook was flattered and took the flour back from Yu Tang's hands, "Sister-in-law's hand is for art, it's expensive, how can it be used for such rough work."

"You call me 'sister-in-law' like a girl. I think you are younger than me, and your strength may not be as strong as mine. I will help you."

Yu Tang insisted on helping, fearing that the little cook would make things difficult, so she added,

"I usually just help the students to look at the paintings. I don't need to do it myself, so why not talk about it."

"Well, that's fine,"

The little cook smiled shyly, and stopped arguing with Yu Tang, "Sister-in-law is really just like the elder brother said, kind and gentle like a fairy descended from the earth."

"Mu Jingchen said I look like a fairy?"

"No, no, I added it myself. My elder brother is different from me. He talks about culture, and he has to read a few poems when he mentions you. I don't understand much about spring and flowers, but anyway I'm praising you."

"Does he often mention me to you?"

"Ham, sister-in-law, let me tell you this. Our camp holds a small meeting every three days, and a regular meeting every seven days. But there are so many things to say at the meeting, all of them are listening to Brother Mu talking about you. Especially you Back then, I saved the big brother who fell into the pit. The brothers are all grateful to you from the bottom of their hearts. Except for the big brother, no one is worthy of us calling 'brother' again, so I dare not think, if there is no you at that time . . . it's really scary."

"Were you in the camp then?"

Yu Tang blinked, slightly shocked, "I think you are only sixteen or seventeen years old, I thought you were just recruited."

"To tell the truth from my sister-in-law, although I am young, my qualifications are old,"

The little cook patted his chest, the teenage boy still had a green glow on his face, and after being asked and praised by Yu Tang, he was willing to tell him everything in secret, so as to prove that he was indeed very senior .

"Before this gun was handed over to Brother Mu, that is, when Old General Mu was still leading the army, I helped cook in this cooking camp. I also followed Brother Mu's several times when he suppressed the bandits, although... Although you can't be on the front line, there is no one in the battalion who can be there every time like me."

The little cook paused, lowered his voice and smiled helplessly,

"Suppressing bandits, it's a matter of life and death, very few people can escape unscathed, except for the safest cooking camp and Brother Mu who has to fight in the front line every time."

Mujiaying was chosen to be built in a natural moat in a valley, backed by the brightly lit Yulin City, facing the Pingwan River rushing down thousands of miles, with a wide view.

At night, the water beach in the distance will be connected with the Milky Way in the sky, forming a piece of lonely starlight, which is blown by the evening wind and blows across the fragrant rice and green grass, reaching the barracks, and on the sloping grass slope outside the camp, On the other hand, there are thousands of cold tombstones.

Mu Jingchen often told them that if he hadn't met Yutang at that time, he would have just lay down in the soil and died in an unsuitable place, so no matter how much he dotes on Yutang now, these brothers in the camp would also like to I don't think it's too much.

"Does Mu Jingchen get hurt every time?"

Yu Tang asked slowly.

From the flour bag in his arms, there was a thick and thick smell of wheat, and a very thick Mu Jingchen was outlined in his mind.

He should obviously be like other noble young masters, either to acquire knowledge in the university, or to have fun in the dance hall, but the fragrance of powder that should have surrounded the young masters turned into a deep red in his place. scars.

"Small injuries are not worth mentioning. It's just that sometimes the gangsters can't prevent those gangsters from playing dirty tricks and making surprise attacks. They will hurt more, but their lives can be saved."

The little cook winked, "Sister-in-law loves Brother Mu? Hehe."

Yu Tang pursed her lips and didn't answer, but asked seemingly unintentionally,

"When Old General Mu was here, did you often go out with him?"

"At that time I was younger, unlike now, but I was there for several important battles, such as Zhangding, Jiacheng, and Enyi Mountain..."

"Have you been to Enyi Mountain?"

When hearing these three words, Yu Tang clenched her fists almost invisibly,

"How old were you? How much do you remember?"

"Enyi Mountain, I remember that the bandits in that place were very clever, pretending to be good people and bluffing. Originally, we didn't plan to start a war in Enyi, but fortunately, Old General Mu had a good eye for discernment and saw something was wrong. Otherwise, Enyi City would It is estimated that it is the world of bandits."

The little cook replied straightforwardly, but Yu Tang's face became more and more ugly.

Pretend to be a good citizen, with discerning eyes.

These eight words were like a sharp dagger piercing into Yu Tang's heart.

So many lives escaped the bandit attack, but failed to escape the regular bandit suppression army. Not only did they die in the hail of bullets in vain, but they even had to bear the name of the bandit after death, so that they would not be wronged.

"But sister-in-law, why do you ask Enyi Mountain? So in the south, do you have relatives?"

The little cook looked at Yu Tang curiously, "Hey, are you not feeling well? Is the flour too heavy? Or let me move it!"

"No, I just heard about the battle between Enyi and Yi before, and I'm a little curious..."

Yu Tang shook her head, and was about to explain something more, when she suddenly felt a lightness on her shoulders, and when she looked up, she saw that Mu Jingchen, who was already fully dressed, snatched the flour bag.

"Big brother... why are you here?"

The little cook was almost scared out of his wits. When Mu Jingchen saw that he dared to ask his sister-in-law to help move things, he had to strangle him to death!

"Can this bag of flour crush you?"

Mu Jingchen threw the flour bag with one hand, and the little cook caught it firmly,

"Have to, hehe."

"Why did you run out... don't you feel uncomfortable now?"

As Yu Tang spoke, she helped Mu Jingchen tie up his collar, but she was worried that Mu Jingchen had heard so much of their conversation, would she doubt him because of this?

"The fever went away after I took a bath, and I had to come out and look for the cat."

Mu Jingchen picked up Yutang and was about to go to the barracks. He didn't intend to help the little cook deliver the flour to the kitchen a few steps away.

"cat?"

Yu Tang was puzzled, "Do you still have cats here?"

The little cook who hadn't gone far shrugged, yes, my sister-in-law didn't realize that she was being treated as a cat by Mu Jingchen.

"Sometimes they feed the wild cats, and over time a few litters have settled in the camp. Do you like cats? If so, I'll catch some to play with you."

"Yumian is allergic to cat fur, so I haven't touched kittens much."

Yu Tang shook her head, but couldn't help asking because she felt fresh,

"Are you looking for a white cat, a black cat, or a tabby cat?"

"It's a sweet cat, but I don't plan to look for it now, lest you get the cat hair and go back and make your brother uncomfortable."

While talking, Mu Jingchen pushed Yu Tang all the way back to the barracks, noticing that Yu Tang swept towards his lower body intentionally or unintentionally, he couldn't help chuckling,

"Afraid that I might infect you with a cold?"

"Mr. Mu, there is a difference between humans and beasts, I believe you will not do anything you regret!"

Yu Tang said righteously.

"I've always kept my word...why didn't I come into the house?"

"I still want to tease the cat."

Yu Tang said embarrassedly, "Can you take me to see it?"

The evening wind blew the moonlight sweetly, Yu Tang's beautiful eyes rarely reflected a bit of pure light, Mu Jingchen sighed, how could he refuse?

"Okay, but if you want to tease the cat, you have to stay in the room with me tonight."

"……why?"

Yu Tang tilted her head, "What is the necessary connection between these two things?"

"Those cats are afraid to admit their masters. If I'm not around, they may scratch you."

With a pure smile, Mu Jingchen made up nonsense without blushing.
